After any WordPress project a client will have a number of questions about their new site so it is the freelancer’s best interest to include documentation.

The WP Help plugin by Mark Jaquith makes it easy to add documentation via custom posts that exist internally within the WordPress admin. The plugin also includes the ability to sync documentation that exists in another WP Help installation. This is really useful if the same documentation is used across a number of sites.

We all have the kind of days where nothing goes right. Everything you try to work on takes twice as long as usual, the computer crashes before you have saved what you were writing, your Internet quits while you are updating files, etc…

Recently I spent over an hour working on a theme I was creating and got nowhere. By the end of the hour, I replaced everything I had done with the original files and it felt like a wasted hour. When I went back to that project a day or two later, everything was fine and I finished the work quickly.
